Aalesund v Fredrikstad

Aalesund dont seem to be doing so well at home (astro turf + shitting it) whilst Fredrikstad are unbeaten this season. Fredrikstad are coming off the back of a good win at Tromso. Fredrikstad had a poor season last year but they did finish well only losing 2 of their last 11 and winning 7 of them. This season they have only lost 1 in 7 so that looks like ok form to me. Whilst they are unbeaten away they dont seem to be netting to many and the draw is the worry but i could be interested in Fredrikstad at that price especially with attacker Brian West coming back for the 4-2 win the other day.

Aye i like it and im gonna have it. anyone got any views on this ot the other ties?

One bet I have to flag up here with Bet365.

Div 2, Section 3 of Norwegian leagues.

Hauguesund are 2nd, 14 points from 18 so far and are at home today to Fyllingen. Fyllingen are 10th from 14 with 4 points out of 18 so far.

Centrebet were best priced earlier in the week at 1.40, since cut to 1.35, I got on at 1.40. Eurobet go 1.40 as do Nordicbet.

However its good to see Bet365 have started offering prices on these games again (they price Divisions 2,3 and 2,4 this weekend) and they go a cracking 1.50 on Haugesund.

Form looks solid to me. Hauguesund are W4 D2 L0 this season with a superb F21 A4 goal difference, Fyllingen are 1-1-4 F5 A8.

IMO the 1.50 is just a wrong price, Laddies go 1.33 and some others including B&W go 1.30. The average from the 10 books pricing it outwith Bet365 is 1.353.

Bet365 did this a couple of times last season when pricing up these games. I looked at these leagues a couple of times nearer the end of the season and noticed Bet365 highest priced on a few selections.

This site will give you tables, form etc - HERE , just change the Tippeligaen to 2 Division and when the screen refreshes change to Avdeling 3. You can get games played by clicking the team names.

Short price maybe but Bet365's price is wrong IMO

10 points on Haugesund at 1.50

Bet365 now realised they were out of line and cut Haugesund to 1.33. Hope some people got on

Hauguesund won 1-0

Apologies Komp (or whoever), hadn't spotted the Norway thread when I made my posts.

Nice spot Crowie. The range of matchs on some of the bookies (Ladbrokes) especially for the Nordic games is pretty impressive but I'm trying to stick to the higher division stuff. I suppose stakes are pretty limited ?

[Parahandy]

Some bookies bet on all 30 leagues and these are.
Tippeligaen (Top league)
Division 1
Division 2 (4 Sections)
Division 3 (24 Sections) :pat

There are some rules worth bearing in mind re promotion and relegation. Some clubs have two teams playing eg Rosenborg (Tippeligaen) and Rosenborg 2 (Divison 2). Two teams from the same club are not allowed to play in the same league. Last season a club who finished 5th in one of the Division 2 Sections was relegated because their No1 club were relegated from the league above into that league.

There is also the Norweigan Cup, so plenty to keep us from getting bored during the UK and main Euro leagues close season

CJ, to be honest I do not think I am going to bother Bet365 with my stakes, I am not what they may call a "big player". Never had any problems getting on what I need with them.

Of the others that I have accounts withm B&W, Centrebet, Laddies and Eurobet all offer these leagues. Some go as far down as the 24 section Division 3, which I am keeping an eye on. Bet365 are doing Division 2 and it might be worth keeping an eye on the 4 sections in Div 2 as there are some strongish sides and some rank bad ones.
